Hi,

1. Yes, using CASO with 4 BE server licenses is the correct way to do this.

2. You would use a B2D target on each site to run backups too. Best bet is to be a deduped backup per site. Once done, the CASO would replicate those backups to a central site using Optimized Dedupe. Bear in mind you need to set up your CASO environment correctly in order to allow the CASO server to control backups on the sites as well as replication of remote data.

3. For licensing questions, you should reach out to the Veritas licensing team as they'd be in a good position to advise you accurately.

Read below for more information:

While these are for BE 16, the concetps should be the same.

Thanks!
